The Injector is a seriously cool pickup, born from Paul Gilbert's need for a bridge single that cuts through the mix without losing that single-coil character. It’s got a great high-end sparkle and surprising warmth thanks to the Alnico 2s, making it perfect for players who want a versatile, articulate tone for everything from clean arpeggios to blistering lead work.

Frequently Asked Questions
The stacked design gives it a noticeable boost—about 20-30% higher output—without the harshness you sometimes get from full-on humbuckers.
Not exactly; it’s more of a warm, slightly nasal single-coil. It’s usable, but don’t expect a full-bodied humbucker tone.
While it’ll fit, its higher output and brighter tone will noticeably alter the classic Strat sound; it's better suited for more modern applications.
